摘要:
Systems, apparatus, and methods for forming a non-circular tissue graft from donor tissue, and a corresponding recipient site in patients tissue, are disclosed. In one embodiment, a cutting guide is disclosed for use in forming the recipient site. The cutting guide comprises a deformable body including a non-circular window, through which the patients tissue is accessed, that is reconfigurable to contour to the patients tissue. A cutting bit is also disclosed for use with the cutting guide in forming the recipient site. The cutting bit engages and follow a cutting route defined by the cutting guide, and includes a shaft, as well as a cutting head that removes portions of the patients tissue. A cutting guide for use in forming the tissue graft from the donor tissue is also disclosed, which includes a removable template defining a channel that corresponds in configuration and dimensions to the cutting route.
